Steve Newall: Flicks.co.nz editor on 'Brat' being Collins Dictionary's word of the year

Brat has been named as the Collins Dictionary word of the year. The term is defined as someone with a 'confident, independent and hedonistic attitude' and has been inspired by Charli XCX's album of the same name, released in June. Flicks.co.nz editor Steve Newall says 'brat summer' became a cultural movement overseas - and is expected to continue with Charli XCX headlining Laneway next February.
